I will definitely spray some undercoating on the bottom of the body after I seal the hole made by the t-bar bolts. My truck isn't that bad as far as rust goes. It has only been in NY for 2 years. Prior to that it was in TX and NM.

Last night we removed the rear u-bolts, add-a-leaf, and the lift blocks. It was so much easier than the front components.

Tonight I spent a few hours drilling, sawing, and pounding to get 4 of the control arm bushings out. I did the lower arms. I had to drill out the rubber bushing, sabre saw through the thin walled outer metal sleeve on the bushing and then pound it out of the control arm. Tomorrow I'll bring all the control arms in to work and ask a tech to press in some new lower control arm bushings and replace the upper control arm bushings.

So far I only had a handful of bolts break due to rust/age. The propane torch has helped and it gets things warm enough to make a difference.

More pictures tomorrow.
